Not racist stereotypes, but perhaps enlightening thoughts on the
Native American experience. Comedians use pain in a positive way by
seeing the humor in what are sometimes very awful life experiences.

No, but perhaps through humor, you can shed light on certain
situations that comes about in what some people see as an inter-racial
relationship.

It's all about context and experience as far as I'm concerned.
